DAY 3 - MOTIVATION AND MORE - THANKSGIVING CHALLENGE

[Ranaesheart]

Today is DAY 3 and time to embrace the day and each other! What a simply W o N d E r F u L L L day to be alive!

Go outside, breath in the air, look at the sky .. how long has it been since you took a few moments to do so??? Stop the rat race for a few minutes and just enjoy being!

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed. - Albert Einstein

What a glorious, mysterious and awesome day to learn and to grow in spirit. Appreciate your self, your life and all the beauty that surrounds us in nature .. it always helps with our perspective.

Here are your Motivation and More Links for today.

Ranaesheart Message - Still feel strange making so many videos .. going to change this to every other day .. :)

Games - This is just for fun and has nothing to do with the challenge other than to provide a little relaxation and frivolity around the Thanksgiving theme. http://www.ranaesheart.com/2000/11/thanksgiving-weight-loss-challenge_16.html  Enjoy today's game .. it's puzzling! lolll


This is the thread to post daily your participation, your thoughts, your progress, any difficulties or triumphs and to post information, encouragement and motivation to your teammates.

So, did you take a few moments to breathe? What did you see? What is your favorite nature memory? Any advice for others just joining us?

Let's get those TURKEYS out there .. and play Turkey Tag! Just tag a few friends with some Thanksgiving wishes and invite them to join us here! It will help build our support base and help others as well. Everyone knows someone who could benefit by losing weight OR who has someone they can help and support with weight loss.

Have an Absolutely Stupendous Day!!! Eat healthy, move a little and realize your dreams!

Many (((Hugs))) ...

HUGE THANK YOU to Skailark who has taken on the exercise portion of the challenge and to ALL OF YOU who are participating!  We simply could not do this without YOU!

There is no better time than now! I am glad you had a pretty good day!

Well i had a pretty good except that i am really sore from wii sports boxing lol! still did my 10 min cardio cus i know i need it! I found a belly dancing 5 mins workout that i will start 2morrow and let yall know if it actually works! according to the body fat index my stomach is carrying too much weight so im hoping for results!! I did good on my eating did not over do the fat intake today although need more protein but again im hoping to do better next week i am going to invest in some protein bars for that and to help curb the cravings. i only go outside to get my mail lol the wind is usually blowing this time of year and i cant breathe it too much or i get sinus infections but today was a nice day! My fav. nature memory is probably again when i was young in elementary school we used to talk walks around the new golf course at the parks i always enjoyed those regardless where we were going!! Advice for others well just keep trying its hard but you gotta stick with it sometime! i fail alot on exercising and watching my eating but i know sooner or later i am really gonna have to do it for reals and im hoping now is the time!!
